In that case there is a flaw in the infrastructure design, like not
enough modularity or a missing API. Every piece of fedora should be replaceable with something that implements the same interface to a known protocol or something like that.

Thats nice in theory, but in practice, standardizing on one piece of infrastructure is often the only way to get anything done. And users care a lot more about the fact that the default display manager works nicely than the fact that they can switch to 20 different display
managers...
